<head>Jesus said, 'I have not much more time to
|
|
speak with you. The ruler of
|
|
this world is approaching.
|
|
He has no power over Me,
|
|
yet I will do the will of the one
|
|
who sent Me, so that the world
|
|
will know that I love my Father.
|
|
If you really loved me, you will
|
|
be glad that I am going to my Father,
|
|
for He is greater than I.'
|
|
<br/>
|
|
'I am leaving you now, but I will come
|
|
again, and we will be together forever
|
|
and always, walking along
|
|
the straight path to the lasting wealth
|
|
from my Father - a wealth the world does not give,
|
|
a wealth I bring, and
|
|
|
|
which
|
|
will not be taken
|
|
away from you. And surely I will
|
|
always be with you, forever and always
|
|
until the very end of the world,
|
|
and the true end of the age,
|
|
and the passing away of this generation.'

'There are many rooms in my Father's house.
|

I am going there to prepare one for you.'

As Scriptures say, 'For we of the spirit of G!D
|
|
have different abilities
|
|
according to the action of the Spirit
|
|
of G!D in our lives.
|
|
Just as a body has different
|
|
members with different functions,
|
|
so, too, we are of one body
|
|
- through the Anointed One, Jesus,
|
|
who calls himself the Son of Man -
|
|
and have different gifts in the same
|
|
body. If your gift is teaching, teach.
|
|
If your gift is devotion to
|
|
G!D, which may or may not be done
|
|
in secret before men, then devote
|
|
yourself to G!D. (For what you do
|
|
in secret before men, the All-knowing,
|
|
All-seeing and All-hearing One
|
|
will know, and your reward is with Him,
|
|
who is not unmindful of your deeds.'

Poems that I wro
|
|
te with G!D's help during
|
|
a stay at a ward
|
|
in an institute of mental health,
|
|
where and when there was
|
|
involuntary medication (bitter-tasting
|
|
white things were pressured into you)
|
|
and restrictions on your coming and going
|
|
from that place - effectively an arrest
|
|
in a prison of sorts, as dainty
|
|
as the fittings of the interiors may be.
|
|
Blaming no-one; it was a journey
|
|
towards G!D - He sends trials. As Scriptures
|
|
say, this calls for patient endurance and wisdom
|
|
and vigilance and sobriety. (not society,
|
|
for as Jesus said,
|
|
to what shall I compare this generation?
|
|
they are like children calling out to others
|
|
in a market-place: 'We sang a dirge, but you
|
|
did not cry. We played a song, but
|
|
you did not dance.'
|
|
And as Scriptures exhort, 'Save yourselves
|
|
from this perverse generation!
|
|
Repent [of your wrong-doings against
|
|
G!D, who is the Most Accepting
|
|
of repentance], and be baptised
|
|
into the Father (who is given
|
|
great happiness to give the kingdom to
|
|
you, so do not
|
|
be afraid; take courage), the Son (who obeys the Father to
|
|
the point of death, so that the world
|
|
will know love for the Father - not love
|
|
for the world), and the Holy Spirit (on which
|
|
G!D knows best - yes, G!D knows and I,
|
|
a servant of G!D, do not know).
|
|
</p>
|
|
Also, to unknown persons - forces,
|
|
beings, angels, demons, rulers in
|
|
the sky above or the earth below,
|
|
fellows in the Spirit of G!D
|
|
(for if G!D is our help, who can
|
|
condemn us, as Scriptures have
|
|
on record), the unknown- oh,
|
|
and the one who calls
|
|
himself... herself...
|
|
themselves... a fairy, too
|
|
- in my life who
|
|
have prayed for me, or helped me in
|
|
one way or another, psychically or in
|
|
visible ways or in unknown
|
|
ways (G!D knows and I do not know),
|
|
praise be to G!D.
